Thankful Thursday

So the other night Eli climbed up on my husband's lap.. While this is becoming his new norm, after going through 8 years of his not letting us touch him voluntarily, and 2 years of his tolerating us touching him with some reservation.. Well each time he does this we are thankful that he has finally come to accept we are not going to intentionally hurt him.

Eli you are a reminder all things are possible! Nearly 10 years ago I so wanted Boo to be my lap cat. She would never sit in my lap. So along came Abby. I want you to know a few weeks ago she decided my lap was vacant and it was OK to climb in. She doesn't sit with me every night, but just about. I had to wait 10 years.

That really is something for which to be thankful. I have found through the years with several of my cats that they have mellowed and become more trusting with age. Hope Eli keeps up the new behavior. Hugs, Janet
